Author: Jalal Othman Title: Libya and Al Jazeera Net Publisher: Madar for Publishing & Printing, Libya Year: 2010 Language: Arabic Description: This book deals with media coverage of Libyan affairs, focusing Al Jazeera Net as a case study. The author examines the Libyan content published on Al Jazeera website and analyzes it in terms of news items, news reports, news sources, and depth of coverage. The analytical study conducted in this work shows that the website relies on two other international sites, the French and German editions of Reuters, which adds to Al Jazeera Net western reporting news values. The book also indicates that users of this website are highly skilled in news vocabulary and are both English and computer-literate. However, the author finds that there it is difficult to understand a great deal of the used terminology on the site by users in Libya.
